turn the Power Switch to the OFF position.
Close and lock all doors during operating this equipment, to avoid injuries by
unintentionally touching cooling fan and fan belt.
CAUTION : Burns
Do not touch the engine and muffler during operation and immediately after
stopping the equipment, for the temperature can reach extremely high level.
(1) Fan Belt Tension
The tension is proper when the fan belt has 7 to
9mm slacks, when applying a finger pressure
(about 98N {approximately 10kgf}) at midpoint
between fan pulley and alternator pulley.
(2) Condition
Check for any damage on the fan belt.
Replace if necessary.

–5
℃
.
Always use the Diesel Fuel Strainer
Fill the fuel tank slightly less than the FULL tank level.
The engine is designed to use either No.1-D or No.2-D
Diesel fuel. However, for economical purpose, use
No.2-D Diesel fuel whenever possible at the
temperature less than -7
℃
, No.2-D fuel may pose
operating problems. At the much colder temperature,
use No.1-D fuel (if available) or use winterized No.2-D
